It’s ok in Sunderland. They should get rid of Nissan and rebuild Usworth Airport.

Two wins in one - all the windy jets could land and the mags will be gutted.

There was a big emirates double decker came over our house very low about 10 minutes ago. It was hammering its engines and made me look up while I was plugging me car in. I reckon it was a go around

This is Usworth Tower you are cleared to land on runway L29.

Watch out for a micra and juke taxiing on L21

I’m guessing the wind is causing some issues again at Heathrow. Just had a BA flight from Dubai come over the house at about 4000ft in a fly round by the looks of it
